I've asked this question before but didn't get any answer, so I thought I'd give it another shot: Is it crucial to wipe before flashing 2.0?

I'm extremely happy with the 1.9 version but my flash addiction is starting to itch real bad ;)
[Desire Android Development] StR@ng3r:
Pay, amy chance for you integrating the interactive and powersafe CPU governor?

I kinda fail to add it myself and it is the only thing I am missgin from your ROM compared to other sense based ones.

Great work.

I used 1.9 for fre weeks and loved it,

I have a verry anoying issue on 2.0 tho, every

Time i try to install it, everything seems fine, until i start

Market, then i get a browser, with legal terms, but

There is no button, so i cant accept, and cant get to Market :/

Anyone know what i could do ?

Ty

Edit...Nevermind, found a way around it, changed language and it

Went straight through.

Why do I want Java on my phone? And why is it an optional extra?

will there be a sparta version released?
[Desire Android Development] olipheus:
FYI, I went on and flashed the 2.0 version over the 1.9 without wiping anything else than cache, and it seems my courage has payed off! No FC's and no other problems yet :)

sorry guys but the research contacts not working in my desire. With defaul contact work, with other not...
[Desire Android Development] alwayslearning:
best thing to do is backup your 1.9, upgrade to 2.0 without wipe, is you have problems then wipe and start all over or restore your 1.9.

i always wipe, just a habit :)

Pay, any word on integrating interactive and powersafe governors into your rom?

I really love your rom and as a big fan of V I especially love your boot screen and don't wonna miss it. The governor is the only thing that is missing for me. Besides that you have created a perfect rrom for me.

Great ROM - but less memory on phone or a2sd+ not working?

Hi guys,

I just flashed the 2.0 of this ROM and it's pretty cool.

Works like charme - no probs with battery or anything else so far.

I just noticed that there is less memory on the phone available...at least android informs me of low memory on the phone. :(

IF inserted a new SD-Card, formatted with 512MB ext3, + Rest and moved every possible app to SD card.

In ROM v1.9 I had the impresssion that there is much more free space available on the phone OR more apps could be moved to SD-Card...

Any ideas?

Also I noticed that the market sometimes is pretty slow, especially when installing more than 1 app. Does anyone else have this behaviour?

Thnx for your replys :D

Laggy and crashing browser

Hey Guys, has anyone had any problems with the browser on version 2?

Pays v1.8 was the first version of any ROM I've put on my phone and I thought that it was great. I didn't bother with v1.9 and I've now put v2.0 on my phone cos I wanted the voice search stuff. I did a full wipe of everything that could be wiped as per the OP's instructions.

Everything seems good except for the browser which for me seems pretty slow and laggy compared to how it was in v1.8. An even bigger problem is that it crashes whenever I'm using Google Reader and I click a feed article which should then open in a new window. The crash is weird as well cos it doesn't force close, the browser just disappears and if I click the Internet icon it opens up again without any problems and reloads whatever page I was on when it disappeared.

Has anyone else experienced this or got any ideas on how to solve it? This is a bit of a deal breaker for me as, I'm sure like many other people, the browser is my most used app. At this stage I'm thinking of restoring my nandroid backup of v1.8 or trying a different ROM altogether.

Any thoughts?
[Desire Android Development] JethroC:
Hi Pays,

Really love your ROMs. I've probably tried every sense ROM available and have come to like yours the most. Keep it up! :)

One issue I came across when I installed 2.0 is that the locale for English (Ireland) is missing. Normally something like this wouldn't bother me but I use Google's News and Weather app as it gives regional news updates but as the locale for English (Ireland) is missing I can't get those updates anymore. The closest is English (United Kingdom) which really isn't any good. This was available in 1.9.

Is there any way of installing the missing locale?

Cheers,

Jethro
[Desire Android Development] JethroC:
I'm just gonna answer my own question! After a bit of searching I found 'MoreLocale 2' which lets you setup and install your own locale's. This has worked perfectly for Google's News and Weather app!
[Desire Android Development] Hooolm:
Going a little off topic here, but out of all the ROM's I've tried, the only ones I've stayed with for more than a day are NexTSense and now Pays. I really like this 2.0 version, as it (maybe by coincidence) solves a few problems I've had with other ROMs. And, I like the color GMail notifier :rolleyes:

I also like pays-batterymod-v2.0.zip, but being being a former web designer, I couldn't keep my hands off and I thought it'd be fun to create my own set of status icons, or whatever you'd call them.

So far I've done:

- WiFi signal strength. Four segments that turn on/off.

- Phone signal. Four segments that turn on/off.

- Mobile data. I've modded 1x, G, 3G and H for in/out/in+out.

- Vibrate

- Silent

- Battery indicator with percentages.

Circular, simple, pretty consistent and mostly BnW, though the 'silent' one has a bit of red, and the battery indicator turns red when you're in trouble.

There is lots of stuff, I haven't done (yet?), like bluetooth, various call actions and all roaming and CDMA signal icons. (Mostly cause they're not applicable here and, as I said, this started out just for fun and for my own handset).

But... Right now I'm basically just trying to get a sense if there's any public interest for this... If so, I'd go the rest of the way towards an actual release.

Swype doesn't work after reboot

Hi,

Any ideas or help will be much appreciated.

I did a full wipe before flashing this ROM.

On restarting I did two things - linked my Google account and then installed Swype from an APK file on the SD card.

Swype works fine when first installed. However if the machine is rebooted it stops working even though it is installed and enabled. The only way to get it working again is to uninstall and install again.

And this needs to be done each time the phone is switched off and switched on again.

Have flashed the ROM twice now, both times after a full wipe / SD + EXT formatted, to see if it was a one off issue. But it continues to happen.

I can't live without Swype, and hate typing now (so cumbersome), so am downgrading to 2.1, guessing that this is an issue with Froyo.

Any ideas or thoughts would be most appreciated.

I have replicated this issue across two ROMS: this one and LeeDroid's latest build.
[Desire Android Development] uruloke:
You can enable keyboards in any 'text input' screen.

So for eg press the 'search' button. When Google search come up tap and hold in the text field. You'll see the menu option "Input selection" will pop up.

Click on this and then choose your preferred keyboard.

You can also do this in Messages, Mail, or any other 'text input' field on the phone.
[Desire Android Development] StR@ng3r:
What I like most about this RoM compared to other (stable) sense roms is the clean, professional and polished look of Pays Rom.

It starts with the high quality boot screen and does not end with the custom icons and battery indicator.

Besides the governor (interactive and powersaving) that I would love to see integrated - as mentioned before :) - there is one more little tweak I think that would be a great addition to this rom.

The music controls on the lock screen, I'd buy you a beer if you could make their background transparent. Right now, the buttons and their background cover half of the album art. I have seen roms that display the control buttons on top of the album art but without that black bar in the background.
[Desire Android Development] DyJohnnY:
hi,

I'm kinda new to adding stuff to my ROM, but I can't seem to figure out how to use the battery mod?

If i choose install from sd card from clockwork recovery, i cannot see the zip file in the list, although I can see it when I mount the sd card on computer.

thanks
[Desire Android Development] uruloke:
If the Zip file is on the SD card you should see it through clockwork Mod no problem.

Just choose the option to install Zip, scroll down the list and it should be there.

Unless you've put it in a folder?

Once you run the zip file, reboot and you'll see the blue clock mod, which looks very, very nice btw.
[Desire Android Development] DyJohnnY:
lol, yeah - seems there was permisssions issue with that mod.

i deleted the file, redownloaded it, transfered to phone, now it works.

Other than that great ROM. Couldn't for the life of me find the Facebook widget, did find some "components" and stuff, but In the end I installed the facebook app.

Hoping this gets me more batter life

Some programs not working?

Hi all,

First of all, kudos to PAYS for a superb ROM. After flashing PAYS, I remarked to myself a few times that my Desire is a perfect phone now (well, almost... :))

However, I still have some small issues.

After using ROM Manager to upgrade to 2.0 and MyBackup Pro to restore, there were a few programs on my Desire that don't display properly. Any thoughts if it's due to the ROM itself, the program or MyBackup? I tried to reinstall the programs but the same problem exists. I have not tried installing these on a freshly-installed ROM (too cumbersome for now) so I can't really tell what is the cause. Anyone faces the same issues?

rgds,

Karl

Flashed 2.0 over 1.9 and everything is working great without wiping!

[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
you need top explain in more detail what is wrong with the programs, and specifically which programs. it could be due to a number of things
[Desire Android Development] Hooolm:
I haven't experienced this, and I use google reader all the time.

Have you tried clearing the browser settings and cache?

This would be the Clear Data button through Settings > Applications > Edit > All > Internet. (Loosely translated from my Danish os :rolleyes:)

If that doesn't work, you could do a nandroid backup of your current install, do a full wipe (including cache and dalvik) and flash the ROM from scratch, and see if the problem persists.

Just a thought: How about installing another browser from the market, and see if that has the same problem?
[Desire Android Development] k420:
I've cleared the data and that certainly looks to have fixed the problem at the moment. If it happens again then it doesn't really bother me to keep clearing the data as long as its not too often.

Thanks for helping me out :D
[Desire Android Development] Hooolm:
No problem :)

I had the same periodic issue on my iPhone with gmail and reader, so I thought it might be a google issue, not a ROM issue. In their effort to make their web apps perform as much like OS apps as possible, they are using a lot of prefetching and aggressive caching techniques. Sometimes that blew up, and I had to clear the safari cache manually.

Anywho...glad it worked :)

[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
hmmm... I havent come across this problem myself tbh, then again I haven't restored them using mybackup.

Just installed paper toss from the market and I don't have the black screen that you do.

when you reinstalled, did you just try installing over the 'corrupted' version or uninstall-then-install the programs?

you could also try an uninstall, then install from the market.
[Desire Android Development] olipheus:
Never mind me. Turns out I used an old version of brut google maps. Rom still kicks ass. Lots better than anything else I've tried. Use it!

the lovely Pays logo screen when boot the device is dissappear after installing the arabic language pack!!!!

the file of arabic language is here http://www.mediafire.com/?w8yrztmxfkumlbz#1

any advice please???
[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
hmmm... it doesnt affect the bootamination files, however editing the framework.jar (which is what you have done) may also change the directory that the bootanimation.zip is looked for. I dont have any java experience so I can't be sure.

for all interested, the folder structure in panzer's update.zip is:

system
-framework
--framework.jar
-lib
--libandroid_runtime.so
--libsjua.so
--libwencore.so
[Desire Android Development] sparkpanzer:
Dear,

Thanks for the explain and the reply
[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
Try and find where the bootanimation is stored in the rom that the arabic files are supposed to be applied to. once you find that you could try putting a bootanimation.zip into the new location and see if it works.

for example,

cm_bravo-07092010-013513.zip has it in \system\media\;

pays has it in \data\local\;

DJDroid1.1-R1 has it in \system\customize\resource.

Still using 1.9 and happy, just wondering why under Pays SetCPU does not offer interactive and conservative modes. Pays wrote earlier in this thread, before 2.0, that he is working on supporting SetCPU. 2.0 changelog does not mention it, so basically are these special modes not supported yet? SetCPU as such seems to work fine, although I red in this thread that w/o ROM integration HTC Perflock driver has to be deactivated after each reboot?

Which rom do you use before installed Pays' one ?
[Desire Android Development] smallcock31:
I recently got my HTC Desire back from a garantee issue from HTC and the first thing was rooting and installing Pays Rom again.

Last version before was 1.8, now I installed 2.0 and used Titanium Backup for my data.

But somehow the software is not installed on the SDHC but on the phone memory.

So, I´m searching the button in the phonesettings for A2SD+.

I thought it was in the superuser or spare parts settings but can´t find it.

What is needed to install the apk on SDHC ( yes, I have an ext3-partitition )?
[Desire Android Development] nas12:
Thank you for your reply, after a long day i have got the rom installed!!!

i previously had blufrost installed which was given by a friend. this totally destroys that rom

a little issue - having just been on the phone the battery life has drained very quickly, would you have any advise on how to improve the battery life??
[Desire Android Development] Panpan69:
Ok first of all i advise you to do a full wipe and after reinstall pays' rom. Will probably clean most of your issues. Come back if issues still there. You must know that wipe will delete all prefs and installed apps. Some rom suffer of oj death and it cause battery drain. This rom seems to be ok with oj.

help me please, i am new root user.
[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
use adb.

adb reboot recovery
adb remount
adb ls /system/app/
adb unistall /system/app/****.apk
-or-
adb rm /system/app/****.apk

****.apk is the name of the app you want to remove that is shown in the list (ls).

after deleting what you wanted, do:

adb ls /system/app/
-check they are no longer there-
adb reboot

failing that, you could try using a terminal emulator. I dont know my linux well enough so I cant be much help there. a quick xda-search will bring up numerous threads on the topic though.

installing apps like normal (ie: not on the froyo-sd) should automatically shift them to the ext-partition.

first try booting into safe mode and remove the installed apps, starting with the newest one; rebooting in between each uninstall to see if that was the problematic one.

otherwise I would recommend a full wipe and install using amon-ra (green) recovery console.

try the following:

1. deplete battery (check by trying to turn it on, it should get to home screen and turn off immediately)

2. charge to full

3. clear battery stats (In amon-ra's recovery console; the green one)

you should only have to do this once, I find that I get a lot more uptime out of it in the weeks after it.

[Desire Android Development] Henz77:
i think this 2.0 not support ext-4. coz i cudnt flash this ROM with ext-4 there. in any case ext-4 working well on version 1.9.

i always got hung in the bootloop screen several times then finally re-partition my sd card n removed the ext-4 then it works.

somebody can confirm this? or maybe its just me in my case 0.o
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Try downgrading to ext3...so much more stable than 4 anyway. Back to PaYs after trying so many other ROMs...stable, well-implemented.
[Desire Android Development] Henz77:
yep already did it. but i just wonder why it works on version 1.9 but not in 2.0 >.<
[Desire Android Development] Panpan69:
Thanks for your reply.

I have an error when i try to delet apps :

/sbin/sh: pm: not found

Any idea ?
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Alternatively, try using the GUI-driven Android Commander (google search) and uninstall/install apps/bootaminations etc that way.
[Desire Android Development] Panpan69:
Thanks for help but i am on a Mac OSX. i found commander on Win only.

Is there a Mac version ?
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
Try ThemePro (available on XDA) or PCSuite (should be available for PC, Mac and Linux) ;)
[Desire Android Development] Panpan69:
Nice one... I used ThemePro it works well !! Big thanks.

New question i would like to have only one homescreen and a wallpaper fix like in launcherpro but want to keep the HTCSense UI. Is it possible ?
[Desire Android Development] nzdcoy:
this thread may contain the answer

what parts of the UI do you want to keep? you can get a picture of the sense dock and use it as your dock background to get that to look the same. You can use the HTC live wallpapers like normal too.

You can't use HTC widgets because they are built into the HTC sense launcher. the beswt replacement for them is the LPplus widgets.
